Book Review #2
Origami Lab By Susan Orleans About Robert J. Lang, physicist and origami master.  In typical Orlean’s fashion, taking the obscure and presenting it to the public.  Good job here to not objectify/absurdify the subject—props.  The work themselves near amazement.  The scientific act of folding paper and the possibilities.  As I wrote in the margins: The infinite seeming within the finite...

Thoughts on Everest
(as reminded by my notebook) (written on an envelope containing breakfast vouchers) “What’s this cinnamon cappuccino?” She asks.  And I wait. And think about Lady Nepal.

Saturday, March 03, 2007 A Supposedly Fun Thing I’ll Never Do Again  by David Foster Wallace A great book of essays from DFW early days circa 1990.

ZumoDrive Taken for Test Run
A few days ago I was at Elsbeth’s house.  We had some time to kill, so I figured that I would follow-up on some work. However, I didn’t have my computer, which became an obstacle. 1) Because all my bookmarks are on my laptop and I had no clue what the address of my work’s email account; 2) because all my work files were stored on my laptop.  So I did this ridiculous maneuver...
